finally my temperature is below 100!

i think it's really funny.. i was thinking this morning, how when i was little i was totally that little kid who would do anything she could to stay home from school! i would love when i was sick, mainly because i could just stay home ally day long. literally...i would sit and hope so much for a day off school. i really did not hate school that much, i just really loved being home.

i would sit and take my temperature and load myself up with lots of layers so it was higher. or sometimes i would blow on it (because of course that would make my temp. higher?!), or i would force myself to cough a lot. missing school was like the ultimate prize in my book.

now, however...

i check my temperature frantically just HOPING it goes down. because missing one day of class is like missing a week! it's horrible. i've missed so much class this week because of this gosh darn (swine?)flu. not to mention i have missed out on a lot of sleep. i think one of the worst things about being sick for me, is not being around people! i really need to be around people - almost always. so being locked up in my apartment has been torture for me.

thank goodness i have discipleship this morning! i am so excited to leave my apartment. and i think i am going to try and go to my afternoon class. :) hopefully i don't over-do it. i'm also considering going home this afternoon...haha. i feel like if i don't i'll just hang out with people all weekend and run myself down too much. at least at home i know i'll rest and get caught up on work. hmmmm.

so it has rained almost every thursday since i have been at school. it's very strange.

okay, well, off to go rest. it's almost the weeeekend!!!!

  2. I'm glad you are feeling better. Did you ever go to the doctor? How can they tell if it's swine? I hope this weekend helped you kick it. Hope you have a great week coming up and that you can get caught up fast.
